Most episodes of “Triple D,” as many fans and its host dub this hit show, find Guy Fieri hitting far flung locations all across the United States, but as its title suggests, the new episode “West Coast Cookin’ ” finds Fieri concentrating on eateries along the country’s “left coast.” That’s still plenty of culinary turf, because even just the stretch from Northern to Southern California encompasses a staggering diversity in terms of restaurants and their menus.

8 p.m. on KWGN Dynasty

Fallon’s (Elizabeth Gillies) painful discovery that Jeff Colby (Sam Adegoke) proposed to her for reasons of revenge, not romance, is compounded by her realization that she’s stuck in this phony engagement until she can figure out how to protect her family from becoming victims of the Carrington-Colby feud in the new episode “Our Turn Now.” Meanwhile, Sam (Rafael de la Fuente) mounts a double-pronged crusade to win Steven’s (James Mackay) love and become a U.S. citizen.
